Life and Times in Sunset + Vine, LA - Part 1

This is my much delayed post on my culinary expeditions around the Sunset and Vine area, mostly within half a mile radius Baja Fresh Light, fresh, inexpensive no nonsense Mexican food. I found that Mexican food sits rather well on the homesick Indian palate. I tried most of what they had to offer but I liked the Tacos and Quesilladas the best. Everything is served with nachos, salsa and guacamole and makes for a filling meal. Their slogan is No Microwaves and no MSG (I think) and they live up to their 'Fresh' slogan completely. It’s the usual noisy eatery, quick token based service and you needn't tip as its self service all the way. A meal for one here will cost about $10 to $15 Zen Zoo Tea Cafe This exotic little eatery is nested beside the Borders book store. The food served is oriental and was definitely music to my spice starved palate. It has both here and to go options and has little Feng Shui knick knacks on sale too which you can browse while you wait for your food...

Baby Steps

To an alternate career I hope! Some days back I bumped into this lady, Kavita Chhibber in an online forum and its been a happy association so far, she is using some of my blog posts for her emag located here . It's a well put together emag which makes for great reading, do visit. I beleive being a part of Dr Deepak Chopra's blog is by invitation only and I managed to gatecrash into intentblog - weekly intent section and managed to generate 43 comments - people sure talk a LOT there! On an impulse I wrote to a few more people - who knows, I may just hit upon a 1 million dollar book deal somewhere? I needed to boast about it on this blog!
